As Christmas Eve spreads around the world and bumps into Christmas Day, every blessing to my Christian, Jewish, Muslim, Heathen, Atheist, Pagan, and every-other-variation friends.

Whatever your beliefs, here we bless one-another by our support and enthusiasm, and you have blessed me. I shall say a small prayer for our members, for Canada and Canadians, for Scotland and Scots, for all the nations and peoples of the world, and a special grin and remembrance for kilties and their friends everywhere.

Thank you for all of your encouragement and support. You help me through some bleak days, and I am grateful. Yours in faiths of many kinds, but at the second-highest feast day in the calendar of my own faith, I wish you, according to our customs, a Merry and Blessed Christmas!

Father Bill+
